Foreign Perspectives

Whilst it’s great to have Wordpress available free, what’s not so hot is that now and again you hit little bugs in the software that you can’t do a whole lot about.

For example, at the moment, I’m continually getting “MySQL server has gone away” which is a time-out thing. There is a fix for it but unfortunately not for the version of Wordpress that I’m running at the moment so I’m going to have to upgrade to a newer version soonish.

Ordinarily, I’d have upgraded right away but I want to move the blog to a new hosting service too and I’m having problems with the blogs that I’ve already moved so I’m going to try and live with that “server has gone away” message for a while yet as I don’t want to do the upgrade on the old hosting service.
